Have any of your ladies heard of a guy named Matthew Hussey, he's an author, public speaker, supposedly helps man and women, date each other, and others who are already in relationships stay in them and has books on these topics too etc. I saw one of his videos on YouTube and it lead me to a website called 9 Texts to Get The Guy by Matthew Hussey | Get The Guy where he discussed these techniques. Some of the emails I've received came along these lines -

"How To Get A Guy To Notice You At A Party – 5 Simple Techniques..

Why do guys overlook some women and give ALL the attention to others?

If you’re like most women, you probably think that it all comes down to physical beauty. Of course, our looks are always a factor in attraction, but that’s actually just one part of what gets him intrigued by you.

Mod cut: copyright violation. Only post first few sentences.

What do you think of this guy? Is he just a scam artist or is he legit?

Is that you Matthew?

Anyways, it isn't a matter of whether these guys are scam artists or legit.

It's whether suckers are willing to fork over money to get tips and ideas on how to attract/date men/women, information that is easily found online for free (or experienced through common sense).

It's not a scam because these people are being upfront about the information they are presenting. Whether it works for people is up to each individual.

Relationship 'experts' are a dime a dozen, especially online where there's no shortage of self anointed experts on how women and men can attract each other. And I'm sure plenty of people pay for this info because they continue to exist.

Well, certainly it's bound to be baloney. If there really were one set of rules that would invariably "get" the guy or girl it would have been discovered way before now and everybody would already be using it.

I didn't click the link but the fact that it refers to texts doesn't mean it's some entirely new idea either; texting has been around for some time now, and abbreviated or not, communication is communication.

People are all different. There's no "secret formula." Be engaging. Be interesting. Try to look nice. Have a means of support. These things don't change. Beyond that "the guy" will be an individual and there is NO skeleton key that will open him, plus every other guy.

I've seen some of his YouTube videos and to me it just seemed like common sense.

I did however like the one video where he was at a speaking event and discussed who should pay for the date(s). Again, it made a lot of sense.

Blah blah blah....yeah more crud that only serves to cause more issues than it "fixes."

I think people should just figure relationships out on their own....there is less hindrance and confusion.

In both of the links referenced in the op, there was good, solid, practical, and actionable advice.

And who should pay for the dates? Males or females?

Those guys are scam artists. I get out of bed, I wipe my own butt (TMI I know), I brush my teeth, and I will attempt to get my own dates. These men will set you up for failure.

I haven't really watched his videos but it seems like good advice that your mom or dad would give.
